Six years after trading in his combat gear for hospital scrubs, Luke Rafferty is faced with things just as heartbreaking as those on the battlefield. The abused children being brought in by the pretty redheaded social worker tug at his soul like nothing he's ever known.
For Devon Manning, being a social worker is a rewarding job, but also a constant reminder of her own troubled youth. Devon takes everything one day at a time-unable to form a relationship with anyone except the children she rescues.
When Luke meets Devon, he thinks he might have found what he's been looking for, but in order to get the life he wants, Luke has to break through Devon's emotional barriers and make her realize that his healing touch might be just the complication her life needs...
I enjoyed this book. I really felt sorry for Devon and Luke. I can't wait to start to read [b:Broken|7741207|Broken (Rafferty, #2)|Shiloh Walker|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1267753446s/7741207.jpg|6782264] to learn more about Quinn. He seems to be a character that is much deeper than he originally appears in this book. In a way, I felt sorry for him also. The fact that his own twin did not trust him enough to even introduce him to Devon. Maybe we will see a happy ending for him in [b:Broken|7741207|Broken (Rafferty, #2)|Shiloh Walker|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1267753446s/7741207.jpg|6782264].
